Chicken Coconut Curry Soup

Ten years ago, my friend Ann made this soup for our family when we moved into our house. This has become one of my favorite soups and I like to prepare when I’m in a jam and need dinner quickly! It is quite easy, tasty, and perfect for a cold winters night. The blend of coconut milk and red curry paste is the perfect combination for a Thai style soup without any fuss. I will warn you though, it does have a nice kick to it. It will warm your bellies and leave you feeling satisfied. If you don’t like spicy food, just reduce the amount of curry paste to your liking.

I typically prepare this soup whenever I have leftover chicken and rice stored in my freezer. What I love about this recipe is that it doesn’t require exact amounts of anything. It’s a little bit of this.. a little bit of that. Before you know it, you have an awesome soup your friends and family will love! Enjoy!

(PS: If you make this soup for your friends who just had babies, I promise you.. You will be a Rock Star because all they’ve been eating since they’ve been home with a new baby is 10 different types of lasagnas and red sauce pasta dishes.)

Note: The only Asian ingredients you need is red curry paste and coconut milk. Fish sauce is optional. Not having fish sauce is no problem. I’ve posted pictures of the ingredients I used below because someone emailed me asking for the brands of the Asian ingredients I use. For the coconut milk and fish sauce I have no particular brand I am loyal to. I just happened to buy Chaokoh coconut milk and Squid brand fish sauce because they were on sale. However, I do like the Mae Ploy brand curry pastes. These ingredients can be found in most Asian grocery stores or in the Asian aisle of your neighborhood super market. You can also purchase them online – just do a Google search.

Since I love my food spicy, I might add some more spiciness with this dish. I would really love this soup. Red curry and coconut are just so perfect together. The flavors are bursting leaving my stomach satisfied!
